Inpatient and outpatient surgical procedures are performed at our Danville campus.
Our surgeons are supported by a Magnet® accredited nursing team and the latest technology. New operating suites at our Danville campus utilize high-definition monitors for viewing radiology tests and live laparoscopic procedures. The OR lighting was designed to provide a range of illumination, including spotlights and green lighting to give visual flexibility throughout the rooms. Green lights can be switched on for better viewing during laparoscopic procedures, allowing the surgeon’s eye to better distinguish small details.
